New Boat, New Day
00:03:11

|
| Okay, this is the new boat. | |
| Try and get it all in there. | |
| The office is messy at the moment. | |
| I'm trying to get everything sorted out for new flooring next week. | |
| This is that cardine flooring. | |
| This just is terrible crap. | |
| Almost tweaked my back out here, moving a chair because the chair sunk into it. | |
| So you can't slide anything. | |
| Anyway, this is the VR1 from Hookie. | |
| It's an OC1, an ocean canoe single person, vacuum molded S-Glass, Kevlar, and carbon. | |
| And I should be able to take it out in a couple of days. | |
| I've got to charge up my GoPros. | |
| I've got to wait for the wetsuits to show up because it's damn fucking cold in this water. | |
| Then I'm going to go and get used to it paddling up in a small creek over here. | |
| I had to come on out and do this early in the morning, guys, before my dog walk, just so I could get it done. | |
| There's all kinds of activity here today. | |
| It's going to be a nice day. | |
| I've got to get in and sand the seat so it'll fit my butt. | |
| Because I'm not sanding my butt to fit the seat. | |
| So anyway, and then set it up and put all the GoPros on and so on. | |
| Basically, you sit in it. | |
| There's controls. | |
| I've got a couple of dry wells in here so I can store camera gear and that kind of stuff. | |
| And that's on more calm paddling. | |
| And we're going to go on out. | |
| I'll be bringing you adventures as I go pedal along in all of the coastal creeks here and go do steelhead fishing, that kind of thing, and exploring, which I'll get into. | |
| I'm releasing a new website in a couple of days and it will have some content on it as to what our plans are for the future here. | |
| Now that I'm starting to get some things straightened out after the cancer. | |
| Anyway, so there it is. | |
| It's from Hookie out of California. | |
| Talk to Jude. | |
| Amazingly, amazing shipping. | |
| I mean, this here is just part of the pile of the packing material. | |
| There's the rest of it. | |
| But amazing job. | |
| Tremendous delivery guy. | |
| It's shout out to Steve. | |
| He really knows what he's doing. | |
| Huge damn trailer and getting this here way out in the Thule's where I am was some effort. | |
| Anyway, so I'm just going to throw this up on YouTube and let everybody see the new boat and get on with the rest of my day. | |
| I'll make a more polished formal version of it after I've got it all rigged up. | |
| Thanks for watching guys. | |
